Anamika is a genus of fungi in the family Hymenogastraceae.[1] Anamika was formerly placed in the family Cortinariaceae, but a molecular phylogenetics study found it to be closely related to Hebeloma, which is in the family Hymenogastraceae.[1][2] Species of Anamika have small basidiocarps with non-hygrophanous caps that are smooth, glabrous and slightly sticky when moist; a pileus margin that is incurved and entire when young and becomes decurved and fissile with age; and a pale brown context. Their lamellae are adnate; their stipes are central, terete, equal or enlarged towards both ends, slightly furfuraceous with a cortina when young, which often leaves inconspicuous annular remnants. Their spore prints are brown. Their spores are amygdaliform to sublimoniform, thick-walled, epitunica strongly developed with cavernous type of ornamentation, with a conspicuous callus and without germ-pore. The edges of their lamellae are sterile with cheilocystidia; pleurocystidia present similar to cheilocystidia. Their hymenophoral trama is regular. Their pileipellis an epicutis, repent thin-walled hyphae with pale brownish incrustation. Their caulocystidia occur in small clusters or scattered. Clamp connections are present in all tissues.[3]

Distribution

Anamika species are known from India, Thailand, China and Japan.[1] Anamika indica has been recorded from semi-evergreen to evergreen forests in the Western Ghats, Kerala, India.[3] It occurs solitary, gregarious to scattered on soil under Dipterocarpus sp. probably forming ectomycorrhiza.[3]
